Why Charter the Sport 40ft in Miami

The Sport 40ft is the yacht we recommend when clients say "we want something that feels fast, looks sharp, and doesn't need a crowd to fill it." At 40 feet with space for up to 10 guests, it hits the sweet spot for a birthday celebration on Biscayne Bay where the DJ set matters as much as the skyline view. It's also a favorite for corporate client entertainment — you can close a deal with a sunset cruise past Star Island, then anchor near the Key Biscayne sandbar for a swim.

Bachelorette parties love this boat because 10 guests is the perfect number for a tight, fun group that still feels exclusive. Families book it for a full day at the sandbar, where the included snorkeling gear and cooler with ice turn a simple boat ride into a proper Miami day. The Sport 40ft delivers that open-water sensation you want in Miami — wind in your hair, skyline behind you, and a captain who knows exactly where the good water is.

Sport 40ft Specifications

Here are the confirmed specs for the Sport 40ft as listed in our charter database. This is a day-charter vessel built for cruising, swimming, and entertaining on the water.

What makes the Sport 40ft stand out is its balance — 40 feet is long enough to handle the chop near Government Cut but nimble enough to thread through the anchored boats at the sandbar. With one stateroom, this is a pure day cruiser; you're not here to sleep, you're here to make the most of every hour on Biscayne Bay. The absence of a flybridge keeps the center of gravity low, which means a smoother, more connected feel at the helm and on deck.

Charter Packages & Pricing

The Sport 40ft is available for charter starting at $1,500 for a 4-hour minimum charter — our most popular option.

Every charter includes a professional captain, crew, fuel, insurance, snorkeling gear, and a cooler stocked with ice. The prices listed above are the charter rate only — Florida sales tax (7%) and customary crew gratuity (15-20%) are added at checkout. We keep it transparent so there's no confusion on the water.

Add a drone videographer for cinematic aerial footage of the Sport 40ft carving through Biscayne Bay with the Miami skyline as your backdrop.

Need flowers, a birthday cake, or custom decorations? Just ask. Tell us your vision via WhatsApp and we'll handle every detail.

Miami Charter Routes & Destinations

Miami is a water city, and the Sport 40ft is your key to it. The most requested route is the Biscayne Bay & Star Island cruise — you'll glide past the mansions of Star Island and Fisher Island while the downtown skyline rises behind you. It's the classic "look at this place" tour that never gets old, even for locals.

For a swim day, head to the Key Biscayne Sandbar. The captain will anchor in the shallow, crystal-clear water where you can jump in with the included snorkeling gear. It's a social scene on weekends — boats raft up, music plays, and the water is warm. If you want to see the big ships, take the Miami Beach & Government Cut route. You'll watch massive cruise liners depart the Port of Miami and cruise along the South Beach coastline — people on the beach literally wave at you.

Finally, the sunset cruise from Bayside to Fisher Island is the move for couples and small groups. As the sun drops behind the skyline, the city lights start to flicker on and the water turns gold. It's the perfect end to any Miami day.

Best Occasions for Sport 40ft Charter

With 10 guests, the Sport 40ft is the ideal size for a curated group. Birthdays are a top booking — imagine a 30th with your closest friends, a speaker on deck, and a cake from our catering add-on. Bachelorette and bachelor parties love this boat for its speed and style; you can hit the sandbar for a swim, then cruise past the mansions for photos.

Corporate clients use the Sport 40ft to impress — taking key partners out for a sunset cruise is a deal-closer that no steak dinner can match. Anniversaries get a private, romantic setting with the skyline as a backdrop. Family reunions find the 40ft size manageable for all ages, with snorkeling gear keeping the kids entertained. And for content creation, this yacht's clean lines and open deck are a photographer's dream — the drone footage alone will elevate your feed.

Compare Similar Yachts

Choosing the right yacht is about more than just the sticker price. The table below compares both the entry price and the hourly rate, since yachts with different minimum charter lengths aren't fairly compared by entry price alone. Here's how the Sport 40ft stacks up against two popular alternatives.

The Sport 40ft Is Not Right For You If:

• You're on a tighter budget. If you want to save $75 per hour on the charter rate, the Sea Ray 29ft offers the same 10-guest capacity at $1,200 for 4 hours, making it a solid budget-conscious pick.
• You want a more iconic, head-turning profile. If the look of the boat is the top priority and you're willing to spend $25 more per hour, the VanDutch 40ft is the style icon of Miami waters.
